@tesla Robotaxi drove me home tonight. I left my car at @UnpluggedTesla . I hit a pothole very hard and it broke something. Yikes. I was even looking at the road during this and didn’t see it in time. @waymo doesn’t yet come to either place. An empty freeway let me see the📈 Market Reaction:

Elon Musk's monosyllabic endorsement of a robotaxi anecdote once again proves that the most powerful force in crypto is a single, ambiguous word. The market's response was characteristically schizophrenic: ETH saw a fleeting 1.04 point pop that evaporated within minutes, DOGE twitched with a 0.14% gain before fading, and the meme coin GORK ultimately shrugged with a meager 0.79% climb. This volatility is not just the norm but the entire business model, with historical 'cool' posts triggering everything from 0.56% ETH rallies to 2.33% GORK plummets. It seems the only thing more automated than the driving is the market's Pavlovian response to its master's voice.
